19、(complete with their infills). This European Standard concerns only behaviour in respect of the frame of the windows, doors, shutters or blinds, their infills and the junctions between the infills and frames. If the windows and doors are subjected to specific conditions of climate, specific conditio
20、ns of test may be required. It does not apply to the testing of glass infills. For the testing of glass infills refer to prEN 1063. This European Standard gives no information on the behaviour of the frame subjected to other types of stresses. It gives no information on the bullet resistance of the
21、junction between the frame and the wall or other surrounding structure. Shutters and blinds must be tested separately and not in conjunction with a window or door, in order to achieve classification in terms of bullet resistance. NOTE Care should be taken to ensure that all joints between the surrou
22、nding wall and the window, door, shutter or blind will have bullet resistance at least equal to that of the window, door, shutter or blind. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cit
23、ed at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

25、he following definitions apply. 3.1 test specimen sample prepared for testing 3.2 perforation piercing of a test specimen by a bullet or by bullet fragments, and/or creation of an opening from the attack face to the rear face The following are considered to constitute perforation: a) passing through
26、 the test specimen by the bullet or any part of it; b) splitting of the rear surface of the test specimen by the bullet or part of it, even if the bullet is visibly retained in the rear of the test specimen; c) creation of an opening right through the specimen, even if that opening closes again afte
27、rwards. Perforation has not occurred if none of the above criteria are fulfilled. 3.3 witness foil sheet of foil positioned behind the test specimen in order to detect splinters ejected from the rear face of the test specimen by the impact of the bullet and to determine the risks of injury due to th
28、e ejection of these splinters 3.4 splinters collecting box receptacle for gathering splinters ejected from the rear face and bullet fragments passing through the test specimen, positioned between the test specimen and the witness foil 3.5 presence or absence of splinters presence of splinters, desig
29、nated “S” is considered to be applicable when there is no perforation of the test specimen by the bullet or any part of it, but there is perforation of the witness foil caused by splinters which are ejected from the rear face of the test specimen absence of splinters, designated “NS” is considered t
30、o be applicable in all cases where there is no perforation of the witness foil 3.6 attack face the face of a test window, door, shutter or blind designed to face the attack. It corresponds to that face of the installed infill which is intended to fulfil the same function 3.7 striking distance the di
31、stance between the centres of two target points on the test specimen 3.8 bullet velocity the velocity of the bullet measured within 2,5 m in front of the attack face of the test specimen 3.9 test range the distance between the muzzle of the firearm and the attack face of the test specimen 3.10 submi
32、ssion document mandatory set of documents to be delivered to the testing laboratory with the test specimenPage 4 EN 1523:1998 BSI 04-1999 4 Apparatus 4.1 Test specimen support The test specimen support shall be rigid enough not to deflect under the effect of impacts to which the test specimen is sub
33、jected. 4.2 Witness foil The witness foil consists of a sheet of aluminium foil 0,02 mm thick weighing 54 g/m 2 , large enough to detect all splinters that might be ejected from the test specimen and with the edges of the foil mounted rigidly in a frame. 4.3 Splinters collecting box 4.4 Shooting equ
34、ipment 4.4.1 Ballistic test equipment The test may be conducted using either weapons or proof barrels. 4.4.2 Velocity measuring device The bullet velocity has to be measured with a measuring device which offers an accuracy of 1,0 m/s. 4.5 Ammunition The shots shall be carried out with ammunition cor
35、responding to the required resistance class in Table 1 or 2 of EN 1522. 5 Test specimen The number and types of test specimens required are determined by the testing laboratory from examination of the drawings of the complete window, door, shutter or blind. The size of the test specimen(s) shall be
36、agreed between the testing laboratory and the applicant, and shall be such as to allow a valid judgement to be made on the bullet resistance of windows, doors, shutters and blinds of varying dimensions. Any infill shall be of uniform quality and shall be not smaller than 0,5 m3 0,5 m, except where t
37、he size of the complete infill is smaller. The attack face shall be clearly marked. Infills shall be tested at the same time as the frame, except glass infills previously tested and conforming to prEN 1063. In all cases, the junctions between glass infill and frame shall be tested. Any glass infill
38、shall have at least the same resistance as that required for the window or door. The test specimens shall be stored for not less than 24 h in the vertical position at a temperature of 188C 58C, and shall be maintained at this temperature for the duration of the test. At the request of the applicant,
39、 the testing laboratory shall return the test specimen for retention, adequately and indelibly marked. 6 Procedure 6.1 Installation of test specimen, witness foil and splinters collecting box Install the test specimen, ensuring: a) the correct alignment between all components of the test specimen; b
40、) that the fixings do not create stresses which may influence the test result in the test specimen; c) that the hardware, mechanisms and movable sashes remain operable. In the case of shutters or blinds, the shutter laths or moving blind must be moved as far as possible to one side so as to obtain t
41、he maximum edge clearance (which can occur in use) between the leaf or blind and the fixed frame. This is required to ensure that the maximum edge clearance which can occur in use is fired upon in the test. Position the witness foil 0,5 m behind the test specimen (dimension taken from the mean centr
42、e line of the test specimen). Position the splinters collecting box between the test specimen and the witness foil. 6.2 Selection of target areas The choice of target areas shall depend on the design of the overall window, door, shutter or blind and shall be decided by the testing laboratory on the
43、basis of their analysis of that design whereby they shall have identified the sensitive areas, that is, those where the bullet trajectory can: a) meet the least resistance; or b) bring about degradation such that it allows access to any opening mechanism which remains in operable condition; or c) ca
44、use the unwanted opening of a window, door, shutter or blind. NOTE The sensitive areas of the window or door frame and shutter or blind are generally as follows: 1) armoured or reinforced areas (marked 1 and 6 in annex A, 1 in annex B, 1, 3 and 4 in annex C, 1, 6 and 11 in annex D and 1, 4, 6, 7 and
45、 9 in annex E). These are generally made up by reinforcement of the profiles constituting the frames or profiles and laths forming the curtain, the guide rails or the head box for a roller shutter or blind; 2) junctions between frame and fixed or opening elements, and between infill and frame (marke
46、d 2, 3, 4 and 8 in annex A, 3 in annex B, 5 in annex C, 2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10 and 12 in annex D and 2, 3, 5 and 8 in annex E) or any junctions within the test specimen. These areas correspond in particular to the gaps between frame and opening sash and also to the infill rebate in which the infill is in
47、stalled; 3) hardware and construction joints (marked 5 and 7 in annex A, 2 in annex B, 2, 6 and 7 in annex C, 3, 4, 5 and 7 in annex D and 10 in annex E). These include for example: hinges, latches and operating devices (handles, locks) and their mountings; corner joints or profiles (butt joints or
48、mitered joints) including cleats, screw welds, or other devices which imply some irregularity in the level of resistance.Page 5 EN 1523:1998 BSI 04-1999 If different thicknesses of reinforcement or different materials are used in different parts of the same frame, each one of these parts shall be te
49、sted. For a door supplied complete with its threshold, if the applicant asks for the threshold to be tested the horizontal gap at floor level shall be subjected to firing. Otherwise the test report summary shall state that this location offers no bullet resistance. 6.3 Arrangement of shots in the selected areas Each target area must receive three shots as determined in 6.2. Target points shall be clearly marked on the test specimen prior to shooting. From examination of the drawings of the complete window, door, shutter
